A bear spotted in residential communities in Delaware County was captured on Tuesday, hours after authorities shot it with a tranquilizer dart.

Pennsylvania Game Warden Jerry Czech told FOX 29's Chris O'Connell that the bear had not been immediately captured after being hit and it then migrated from Upper Darby to Drexel Hill.

The bear was also spotted roaming wooded areas of Lansdowne Borough and Clifton Heights, near Creek Road.SKYFOX flew over Delaware County where bear sightings were reported Tuesday morning. According to the Clifton Heights Fire Company, firefighters assisted the police department and game wardens with capturing the bear early Wednesday morning.

Bears are most active at dusk and dawn, but the Game Commission says that once a bear finds easily accessible food, they will keep coming back. The issue with their return is that with every return, comes a decreased fear of people.
